Tea in the Garden


Much laughter and cheery gossip goes around the table this day.

Tea cups clatter.

Scones are slathered with clotted cream.

Lady Vee's story causes much interest.

Voices are hushed.

...and so at this auspicious occasion, Lady J.K. proceeded to tell Lady Ann that she is not immune to our dashing Mr. Darcy!

Smiles and knowing looks.

  6. I think the Longbourne Wedding tea sounds absolutely amazing, and more unusual too--at least as opposed to the teas I've tried.(: and yes! I definitely plan on reading this one as soon as I get around to it.(:

  17. I like the Miss Elizabeth. I like Cranberry! :)

    I would be interested in the JK book. Just to see if she can really write. :)

  18. I like Longbourn Wedding Tea. Champagne and rose petals, sweet smelling and taste.

    The Casual Vacancy has adult themes so I may read the book since I'm of age. But I'm not crazy about it since it's not Harry Potter.
